RE: Goodbye dayjob. All into steem!

I'm surprised you are not on top 19 witness list, as I remember the video you made a bit ago, and thought you were brilliant! I voted for you after i saw that. Maybe now that you have more time, you will be back on? I think the PEVO initiative is great....it needs some serious energy put into it, right?

Sort:  

Remember this? The situation hasn't changed since then, and pumpkin decided to remove his vote for now.
The difference this time is that PEvO's funding is secured for a bit. Can't make big steps, and the idea to hire a scientific advisory board is on ice again (although we'd really need them. Voluntaries anywhere?), but we have some reserves.

@pharesim there are a ton of actual card carrying credentialed scientists on this platform. Take a look at @lemouth since he's a scientist who works at the LHC at CERN. Many of his commentors and followers are scientists.

We are here you just need to know where to look.

@lemouth is already in our chat. What's more difficult is getting people from outside the MINT bubble .
We're working on promotion material to reach out though, it will all come together.

I indeed already discussed slightly in the past with @pharesim. I would like to discuss further and be more involved in the pevo initiative (I actually already discuss the ideas with some of my peers), but as always, time is the issue... I will however try to be more present from now on!

Ok, looks like we are on the same team, as the whales that don't vote for your witness are, I suspect, the whales who no longer vote for any of my posts. It doesn't matter what I write, there are some against me. Unfortunately, the centralization of power is having devastating effects on the quality and future viability of this platform. There are too many boys posing as Gods, and for this reason, I think the growth is limited until a more cohesive upper layer exists. When our livlihoods are so directly affected by the warring atmosphere, I am afraid that this experiment is just like the one on the outside world. I'm interested in PEVO, as i stated before. I think I need to learn a bit more about it first.....and I do know some scientists, just a few who I could email about this. I could imagine that getting scientists on board will be a little like herding cats....
